This is a great opportunity for the community to volunteer and support us with the conservation work required on Ham Mere, helping us to improve the wildlife habitat for wetland birds and waders. These sessions are open to anyone aged 12 and over (under 18s need to be supervised by a parent or guardian) and are FREE to attend.

Tasks include clearing the scrub, willow and overgrown vegetation in this area to expose the wetland habitat. Learn new skills, learn about our wildlife habitat and give back to nature whilst supporting the work of Nene Park Trust.

These sessions are FREE to attend but we would like people to book a place so we know who is coming.
